Respite Care

Our Comfort Keepers are available 24/7 throughout northern Kentucky so you can take a break from providing care any time you choose.

Caregiving can be a rewarding experience within a family, but even in the best situations, home health care is a demanding responsibility—especially when balanced with a job or caring for children.

When family caregivers are emotionally drained, they are likely less effective at playing this critical role. Our Comfort Keepers® provide respite care or temporary relief throughout New Albany, Indiana and northern Kentucky so you can enjoy some much-needed time off. Taking care of yourself is paramount to caring for your loved one. The more you are in control of your own life, the better you are able to help others. This is why we take pride in being able to step in for primary caregivers and maintain the same high standards of care you expect so you can return to find your loved one happy and healthy.

What is Respite Care?

Known in some countries as “short break” care, respite services provide planned short-term breaks for families and other unpaid caregivers who need time outside the home or to simply take a rest. Respite care helps support and maintain the primary caregiving relationship.

How Comfort Keepers Can Help

Respite care services give you time to leave the home for a few hours or even a few days, knowing the one you care for is in good hands. This creates time to:

Take care of the errands

Catch up on your shopping

Attend a support group meeting

Visit doctor or dentist for routine care

Reconnect with a spouse

Spend time with your children

Attend a wedding

Give yourself a much-needed rest
